💙💛 Graft and gratitude. The highs and lows with Pa 💙💛 Graft and gratitude. The highs and lows with Pam Duxbury.

What a Fifteen Minute Focus we had at our Accrington Better Networking Hub this morning.

Pam Duxbury, Director of AC Accountancy, could have spent her fifteen minutes telling us all about accountancy.

Instead, she told us her story.

⚽ Her time as CEO of Hartlepool Football Club
💼 Launching her own business
💪 The graft behind the journey
📈 The highs
📉 The lows
💙 And plenty of gratitude along the way

There was also a wonderful example of what networking can lead to.

Pam was introduced through networking to a fellow member who would eventually become her business partner at AC Accountancy. 🤝

And when it came to the introductions Pam would particularly value now, she summed them up brilliantly:

Businesses that DO and MAKE.

⚙️ Engineering
🏭 Manufacturing
🤝 Service providers

Pam is also an experienced outsourced Finance Director, getting beneath the numbers and working alongside clients to become part of their finance team rather than simply their accountant.

That’s one of the things we love about our Fifteen Minute Focus.

We don't just discover more about what our members do.

We get to know who they are, where they’ve come from and what makes them tick.

Thank you for sharing your story with us, Pam. 👏💙💛

Better Networking, Better Business.

💙💛 Another year of Better Networking with Christin 💙💛 Another year of Better Networking with Christine!

We’re delighted that  @christinesmith1999 (Christine Smith) has renewed her Better Networking Hubs membership for another year. 👏

And this is one seriously impressive woman!

✨ Temple Spa
✨ Certified in skincare
✨ Wellness Coach
✨ Face Yoga Teacher
🏃‍♀️ Running Coach
🏅 Marathon runner
🏊‍♀️🚴‍♀️🏃‍♀️ Triathlete

We’re exhausted just writing the list! 😂

But for all Christine achieves, it’s who she is that makes her such a valued member of our network.

Kind. Considerate. Hardworking. Determined.

And an absolutely brilliant connector of people. 🤝

Christine genuinely listens to other members, remembers what they’re looking for and regularly spots opportunities to make introductions and referrals.

Because great networking isn’t just about asking:

“Who can help me?”

It’s also about thinking:

“Who can I help?”

Christine embodies that beautifully. 💙💛

We’re honoured to have her as part of Better Networking Hubs and delighted she’s staying for another year.

Thank you for renewing, Christine! 🥂

Want to meet Christine and the rest of our members? Book a visitor place online and come and experience Better Networking Hubs for yourself.

🎯 What could you do with fifteen minutes and a roo 🎯 What could you do with fifteen minutes and a room full of people willing to help?

Our founder Tracy Heatley recently took the Fifteen Minute Focus at our Rossendale Better Networking Hub.

This time, she wasn’t talking about Better Networking Hubs.

She was wearing her other hat as Head of Marketing at @gjd_manufacturing. 😊

After introducing members to GJD’s professional perimeter security, detection and illumination technology, Tracy got very specific about the introductions she’d love:

🏢 Commercial architects
🔐 Security integrators
🛡️ Security companies & installers
🤝 Distributors
💼 Commercial insurance brokers

Because saying “I’d like introductions to anyone who needs security” doesn’t give your network very much to work with.

Tell people who you want to meet, why you want to meet them and how you can help them, and suddenly they know what to listen out for.

And our members have certainly been listening.

Tracy has already received her first referral! 🎯👏

That’s what the Fifteen Minute Focus is all about.

Not simply fifteen minutes in the spotlight, but giving your network the knowledge they need to spot opportunities for you long afterwards.

💙💛 Another year of Better Networking with Martin! 💙💛 Another year of Better Networking with Martin!

We’re delighted that Martin Rawstron, owner of Prinny Mill Business Centre in Haslingden, has renewed his Better Networking Hubs membership for another year. 👏

After many years of running his own businesses, Martin bought Prinny Mill and transformed the former foundry mill into the fabulous business centre it is today.

And there’s much more to Prinny Mill than gorgeous office space:

🏢 Serviced offices
📮 Virtual office services
💙 The Halo Suite, a private wellbeing room available to hire by the hour and ideal for therapists and other professionals
📦 Internal and external storage facilities

But impressive as the building is, it’s the man behind it we really want to celebrate.

Martin is one of the most genuine, down-to-earth people you could meet. He brings years of business experience to our Rossendale Hub, is incredibly approachable and is always happy to help.

And those are exactly the qualities that make a great networker. 🤝

Because networking isn’t just about exchanging business details.

It’s about building genuine relationships with people you know, like and trust.

Martin makes that bit rather easy. 😊

Thank you for renewing, Martin. We’re very glad you’re staying! 💙💛

Fancy meeting Martin and the rest of our members?

We’re delighted that Pam Duxbury, Director of AC Accountancy, has renewed her Better Networking Hubs membership for another year. 👏

And there’s much more to Pam than you might expect from the word ‘accountant’.

Alongside the traditional accountancy services, Pam is an accomplished outsourced Finance Director who loves getting properly involved in her clients’ businesses.

She helps business owners understand their numbers, supports them with important decisions and looks for opportunities to add genuine value.

For many clients, AC Accountancy doesn’t simply feel like their accountants.

They become part of their finance team.

And that ability to understand people and what they need extends to Pam’s networking too. 🤝

She’s a natural connector who listens, remembers and makes genuine introductions and referrals when she sees an opportunity to bring the right people together.

And she’s also one of the loveliest people you could hope to meet. 😊

We’re very lucky to have you as part of Better Networking Hubs, Pam.

Thank you for renewing. Here’s to another year! 🥂💙💛

🎯 This week's Fifteen Minute Focus had a very fami 🎯 This week's Fifteen Minute Focus had a very familiar face!

Our founder Tracy Heatley swapped her Better Networking Hubs hat for her other one as Head of Marketing at @gjd_manufacturing .

Tracy used her Fifteen Minute Focus at our Accrington Hub to introduce members to GJD, a Greater Manchester manufacturer of professional perimeter security, detection and illumination technology.

She talked about the products GJD designs and manufactures, her role within the business and, most importantly from a networking perspective, how our members can help.

Because there's a big difference between knowing what somebody does and understanding their business well enough to recognise an opportunity for them.

That's why we give our members fifteen minutes to get beneath the surface of their businesses.

The better we understand each other, the easier it becomes to:

🎯 Spot opportunities
🤝 Make meaningful introductions
💡 Recognise potential contacts
💙 Give genuinely useful referrals

Because good networking isn't simply about who you know.

It's also about understanding who the people you know need to know.

Better Networking, Better Business. 💙💛

90s kids... you KNOW this dance move. 😂💃🕺 Standin 90s kids... you KNOW this dance move. 😂💃🕺

Standing virtually on the spot.

Knees and hips going.

One hand. Then the other.

Like you were handing out flyers to an invisible queue of people. 😂

Which, come to think of it, looks remarkably like some people's approach to business networking...

Business card?
Business card?
BUSINESS CARD?!

But handing your card to everyone in the room isn't networking.

Talk to people.
Ask questions.
Have a laugh.
Get to know them.

Then swap details when there's actually a reason to.

Don't shove and run, stay and chat.
That's where Better Networking is at. 🙂

He's normally behind the camera. Today, we're putt He's normally behind the camera. Today, we're putting him in front of it. 🎥

Meet Paul Coppack from Shooters Media.

With more than 20 years' experience, Paul knows a thing or two about making businesses look and sound good through professional video and podcast production.

And he's definitely not a “yes person”.

If an idea isn't going to show you or your business in the best light, Paul will tell you, and help you find a better way.

That's experience worth having on your side.

Paul would particularly love introductions to:

🎙️ People thinking about starting a podcast
🎙️ Businesses needing podcast studio or production services
🎥 Businesses planning commercial video projects
📱 Businesses wanting short social media reels
🎬 Longer-form commercial video projects
✂️ Businesses needing professional video editing

Paul recently shared more about Shooters Media during his Fifteen Minute Focus at our Accrington Better Networking Hub.

So we're returning the favour and putting him in the spotlight for a change. 💙💛

Serious about business. Not remotely serious all o Serious about business. Not remotely serious all of the time. 😂

Because who decided business networking wasn't allowed to be fun?

Finding the right networking group can be a bit like buying a house.

You can compare everything on paper...

But sometimes you walk through the door and just know:

“Yep. These are my kind of people.”

That's when networking starts to feel different.

You relax.

You join in.

You laugh.

You get to know the people behind the businesses.

And those genuine connections help build the trust that makes good networking work.

This moment from our Accrington Better Networking Hub at Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa features Danny Davis from Sivada Nexus, Ruth Seddon from Ruth Seddon HR & Employment Law and Duncan Baldwin from Smith & Sutcliffe Solicitors.

Clearly taking their networking very seriously. 😂

Better Networking. Better Business. And plenty of laughs along the way. 💙💛

Why do we have our hearty breakfast at the END of Why do we have our hearty breakfast at the END of our networking meetings? 🍳☕

Because something changes when the formal networking finishes and breakfast begins.

People relax.

Conversations become more personal.

We move seats.

We laugh.

We catch up.

We talk about business, but we also get to know the people behind the businesses.

And that matters.

Because genuine relationships aren’t built through business conversations alone.

They develop when we relax, let our barriers down and get to know each other properly.

The structured part of our meetings helps us understand what someone does.

Breakfast helps us understand who they are.

And we need both.

Connection builds relationships.

Relationships build trust.

And trust helps us feel confident recommending someone to the people we value. 💙💛

Judging by this breakfast at our Rossendale Better Networking Hubs meeting at  DoDahs in Rawtenstall, we take the “hearty” bit pretty seriously too! 😂

Don’t worry, there are healthy options available too. 😉

Sometimes getting to know the person is just as important as getting to know the business.

For ten minutes this morning, a room full of busin For ten minutes this morning, a room full of business people stopped.

Properly stopped. 🧘

Our Fifteen Minute Focus at the Accrington Better Networking Hub was a little different today.

Danny Davis from Sivada Nexus is the UK distributor for the Padma Seat, which can help support the knees and back when sitting, particularly during meditation.

Rather than simply telling us about it, Danny gave us an experience.

He took the room through a guided ten-minute meditation.

No introductions.

No referrals.

No thinking about the next thing on the to-do list.

Just ten minutes to stop and be present.

And it was rather lovely. 💙💛

Danny could have spent his Fifteen Minute Focus explaining the Padma Seat.

Instead, he helped us experience the thinking behind it.

He’d particularly love introductions to:

🧘 People who meditate
🧘 People who would like to start
🧘 Commercial businesses and organisations interested in learning more about the Padma Seat

A very different Fifteen Minute Focus, and one we’ll certainly remember.

Sometimes stopping for ten minutes is time very well spent.

Joining a networking group doesn’t make networking Joining a networking group doesn’t make networking work.

Turning up is one thing.

Participating is another.

The people who tend to get the most from networking don’t simply attend.

They:

💡 Listen
💡 Ask questions
💡 Arrange one to ones
💡 Follow up
💡 Learn about other members
💡 Make introductions
💡 Share knowledge
💡 Look out for opportunities for others

And gradually, relationships develop and people start doing the same for them.

Not because they HAVE to.

Because they want to.

This action shot from our Accrington Better Networking Hub at Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel & Spa captures Peter Sims from BlueRockIT and Leroy Philbrook from PAC - Positive Action In The Community, who was standing in for Jenna Pac Lusty, doing exactly what networking should involve.

Talking. Listening. Engaging. Building relationships. 💙💛

Because there’s a difference between attending a networking group and becoming part of one.

Membership gives you access to the room. Participation helps you build your place within it.

Networking isn’t something you attend.

It’s something you do and continue to work at.

We give you the music, but you have to play it! 🙂

Something exciting is happening at @whyusmarketing Something exciting is happening at @whyusmarketing Software… 👀

Richard Singleton recently took the Fifteen Minute Focus at our Accrington Better Networking Hub and challenged a few assumptions about CRM systems along the way.

💡 The biggest name isn’t necessarily the best.

💡 The most expensive isn’t automatically the best.

💡 And perhaps we shouldn’t think of a CRM as just a CRM at all.

For many businesses, it’s a much wider business system.

Richard knows this market extremely well and continues to work proudly with established CRM brands, including Zoho.

But he’s also been busy developing his own offering.

And there’s more coming…

👀 A new name
👀 New pricing packages
👀 Exciting plans for the future

Our Accrington members were given an early glimpse, but we’re keeping Richard’s new name under wraps until he’s ready for the big reveal!

Richard has also been networking for more than 15 years and has run networking groups himself.

So we were particularly proud to hear him say that he has had more from our Accrington Better Networking Hub than any other networking group he has ever been involved with. 💙💛

Sometimes a Fifteen Minute Focus teaches us something new about the business someone runs today.

Richard’s gave us a glimpse of the business he’s building for tomorrow.

Watch this space. 👀

A referral is your reputation on loan. 💡 When you A referral is your reputation on loan. 💡

When you really think about that, it changes the way you look at networking referrals.

When you recommend someone to a client, friend or business contact, you’re doing much more than passing on their details.

You’re saying:

“I trust this person enough to put my name behind them.”

That’s why good referrals need strong relationships.

People need to know:

💡 What you’re good at
💡 Who you can help
💡 How you work
💡 What you stand for
💡 Whether they can trust you with someone they value

Because every referral involves three reputations.

The person making the introduction.

The person receiving it.

And the person being recommended.

So instead of asking:

“How do I get more referrals?”

Try asking:

“How do I become someone people feel confident referring?”

That’s a much better place to start. 💙💛

Good networking doesn’t stop when the meeting fini Good networking doesn’t stop when the meeting finishes. ☕

Sometimes the most valuable networking happens between meetings.

💡 A one to one over coffee
💡 A useful introduction
💡 A quick message when someone springs to mind
💡 Sharing advice or knowledge
💡 Recommending another member
💡 Spotting an opportunity for someone else

The meeting brings people together.

What happens afterwards helps turn those connections into relationships.

And the better we get to know each other, the easier it becomes to recognise opportunities, make meaningful introductions and advocate for one another.

Because good networking isn’t simply somewhere you go.

It’s something you do.

Before the meeting. During the meeting. And between the meetings. 💙💛

Do you really know what the people you network wit Do you really know what the people you network with do? 👀

Knowing someone is an optician is one thing.

Knowing their specialist expertise and recognising exactly when you should introduce someone to them is something else entirely.

Long standing member David Gould from David Gould Opticians recently delivered his Fifteen Minute Focus at our Rossendale networking group at Do Dahs in Rawtenstall.

David shared his expertise in Myopia Management and how it can help slow the progression of short sightedness in children.

And here’s something you might not know.

In 2017, David fitted the first pair of MiSight Myopia Management contact lenses in a UK practice.

You don’t tend to see many opticians at business networking groups either.

Yet David has generated thousands of pounds worth of business through networking.

Because good networking goes much deeper than:

“This is David. He’s an optician.”

It’s about understanding his expertise.

Knowing who he can help.

Recognising the conversations that should make you think of him.

And developing enough trust to confidently recommend him.

That’s why our Fifteen Minute Focus isn’t simply an opportunity for members to promote themselves.

💡 It helps the rest of the room become better advocates for their business.

The better we understand each other, the better the introductions we can make. 💙💛

Being heard isn’t the same as being understood. 👂💬 Being heard isn’t the same as being understood. 👂💬

You can introduce your business at every networking meeting, but great referrals need more than visibility.

People need to understand:

💡 Who you really want to work with
💡 The problems you solve
💡 What a great opportunity looks like for you
💡 What makes you different
💡 When they should think of YOU

And that understanding develops through conversations.

This photo captures Pete Simms from Bluerock IT, Leroy Philbrook from PAC and Pam Duxbury from AC Accountancy chatting at our Accrington networking group at the Mercure Dunkenhalgh Hotel.

No sales pitches.

Just people talking, listening, laughing and getting to know one another.

It might look like a simple conversation.

But conversations like these are where relationships develop, trust grows and future referrals often begin.

Because good networking isn’t about shouting louder.

Being visible gets you noticed. Being understood helps you get referred. 💙💛

#AccringtonNetworking #RossendaleNetworking #LancashireNetworking #BusinessNetworking #LancashireBusiness #ReferralMarketing #BusinessRelationships
Being friendly isn’t enough to make networking wor Being friendly isn’t enough to make networking work. 💡

We think networking SHOULD be friendly.

You should enjoy walking into the room, have a laugh, build relationships and genuinely look forward to seeing people again.

But networking is also an investment of your time and money.

So something needs to move.

That might be:

💡 A trusted introduction
💡 A referral
💡 A collaboration
💡 Greater visibility
💡 Useful advice
💡 Someone recognising an opportunity for you weeks or months later

That’s why we believe good networking needs friendliness AND structure.

Enough structure to create opportunities.

Enough freedom for genuine relationships and camaraderie to develop.

Too much structure can make networking feel like another job.

Too little can turn it into a social gathering with business cards.

The magic is in the balance. 💙💛

#AccringtonNetworking #RossendaleNetworking #LancashireNetworking #BusinessNetworking #LancashireBusiness #NetworkingTips #BusinessCommunity #Rossendale #Accrington #hyndburn #lancashire
Does bigger automatically mean better when it come Does bigger automatically mean better when it comes to networking? 🤔

We don’t think so.

You can be surrounded by 100 business owners and still leave without making a meaningful connection.

Because great networking isn’t about filling a room.

It’s about what happens between the people in it.

The conversations.
The introductions.
The support.
The laughter.
The referrals.
The genuine desire to see other members succeed.

That camaraderie matters.

But being friendly isn’t enough either. Networking is an investment of your time and money, so it needs to create opportunities and deliver a return.

For us, the sweet spot is simple:

People who genuinely enjoy being together AND understand that they’re there to help one another grow.

So perhaps we should stop asking:

“How many people are in the room?”

And start asking:

“What happens because those people are in the room together?” 💙💛

That’s better networking.

🎉 The celebrations continued today! 🎉 Yesterday, 🎉 The celebrations continued today! 🎉

Yesterday, Better Networking Hubs celebrated its 2nd birthday, and this morning we carried on the celebrations at our Accrington networking group. 💛

A huge thank you to Rachel Killoran from Admin Fixers for baking some beautiful on-brand birthday cakes.

Umerah Shuaib from Utility Warehouse delivered a brilliant Fifteen Minute Focus. I always learn something new when our members share their expertise, and Umerah always brings warmth, positivity, and plenty of laughs.

It was also lovely to welcome Colette Machard back for a second visit.

Most importantly, the morning was filled with everything that makes networking worthwhile:

💛 Great people
💛 Meaningful conversations
💛 Supportive relationships
💛 Opportunities and referrals
💛 Plenty of laughter

Two years on, I still love seeing the friendships, collaborations, and business relationships that grow through our groups.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey so far.

Happy Friday! 😊
